Surgeon punched doctor in row over Laura Kuenssberg

He didn't say you did. That bit of Udayana's posts was a general observation.

Detest, hate, loathe, abhor, whatever (they all mean the same), but I didn't think you detested the woman, only her views & I said that.

Neither did I think your original remark about decking her (or whatever word you used), was meant seriously.

So I don't believe I misunderstood you. You may have misunderstood me but who cares?

I was very clear and you were not on your own.

Some dictionaries take the same view as me about the use of 'detest'.

I suppose he lost his patients. Ok, ok, I know where the cloakroom is.

I think "hilarious" might be over-egging it but it's faintly amusing. At least I find it faintly amusing when i talk about punching people I am never going to actually punch.

Having had a friend who was killed by one punch, maybe I find your idea of humour uninteresting.

What you find uninteresting is your problem.
